JAKARTA - Anthony Sinisuka Ginting qualified for the semifinals of the Singapore Open 2022. This result was achieved after blocking the step of the Chinese representative, Ng Tzu Yong who was in peak performance.
In the quarter-finals meeting at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Friday night, Ginting completed 35 minutes to seal the score 21-15 and 21-12.
At the beginning of the first game, a point fight took place between Ginting and Ng. Tight competition continued until the first interval was only one point 11-10, where the advantage was in Ginting's favor.
After the break, Ginting tried to continue his dominance in the first half. Ginting's effort paid off well because he was able to make a long distance and ensure a 21-15 advantage in the first game.
In the second game, Gining's appearance was even more stunning. He managed to steal early points, making representatives of China far enough away and back ahead in the second interval 11-7.
With this capital, Ginting did not want to rashly display his game. Although excited to win, he still tried to calm down.
Ginting's efforts continue to bear fruit because opponents often make mistakes that make points in favor of Indonesian representatives. After the break, Ng held on for a long time on the eighth point while Ginting continued to shoot and finally sealed a 21-12 win late in the second game.
Ginting, who was the fourth seed, was previously asked to be vigilant when facing Ng. Because, non-seeded badminton players are in peak performance. He was able to overthrow the eighth seed in the first round.
However, Ginting's victory in the quarter-finals was able to break Ng's dominance. Ginting also became the fifth Indonesian representative to qualify for the semifinals in today's match.
